Californians are split on several health-related issues, including whether the state should expand Medi-Cal coverage to all undocumented immigrants, according to a new poll by the Public Policy Institute of California, the Los Angeles Times reports.

For years, the state has conducted something of a shell game to help finance Medi-Cal, its health insurance system for the poor that now covers nearly a third of Californians.

One of healthcare advocates' unspoken fears is being voiced by state lawmakers who worry a projected multibillion-dollar budget surplus could weaken political resolve to revamp a soon-to-disappear tax that helps fund healthcare for low-income Californians.

The Affordable Care Act expanded health coverage to millions of Americans in 2014. Because more people had insurance to pay for healthcare services, demand and spending predictably went up more quickly.

ObamaCare will force a reduction in American work hours — the equivalent of 2 million jobs over the next decade, Congress’s nonpartisan scorekeeper said Monday.

Three years after launching the state's health-benefit exchange, Covered California wants to help consumers sign up for vision coverage as well.
